Chapter 4: Meeting A Boss By Chance

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Three years after the launch of Pantheon Glory, with the update of the level 85-120 expansion, War Of The Gods, players had their ninth class change: advancement to the god-tier.

It was an era that had forged countless legends, and it was also an incredibly chaotic era.

With the large-scale invasion of the demons, more and more top-tier players stepped into the god-tier.

Presently, countless legends had sprung up like bamboo shoots after a rain.

However, there was one thing similar to the moon in the night sky. No matter how many stars there were, they could not hide the brilliance of the moon.

While every player was rejoicing over their victory, a figure stealthily passed through the dense battlefield and entered the demon domain.

While all the players were rejoicing in their victory, that person had successfully killed the king of the demonic realm, Odysseus, shocking the whole world.

When all the players in the nation region were filled with doubts about the number one thief, he used his own strength to prove the real king in the shadows was.

And the person who created such a legend was the man in front of Lin Yi: Chi Tong.


At that time, it wasn’t that no one had tried to assassinate the master of the demonic territory. Still, no matter how meticulous the plan was or how many god-level demon hunters were assembled, the result was a crushing defeat.

He was the only one who had truly accomplished such a shocking feat.

No one knew how he did it because everything about him was just like his profession in the players’ eyes. He walked in the shadows, appearing and disappearing unpredictably.

Lin Yi never thought that he would meet the legendary figure he admired so much.

However, it was apparent that the current Chi Tong was like a novice apprentice, immature and unfamiliar in all aspects.

The reason why Chi Tong could become the King Of The Shadows a year later was that no one had ever noticed his existence after he entered stealth.

It was also because Chi Tong didn’t belong to any force and was always a unique existence.

If so, many would’ve had to be on guard against the hand of death.

“How did you find me?”

Seeing that Lin Yi didn’t answer his question, Chi Tong couldn’t help but ask again.

From this, it seemed that Chi Tong was very concerned about Lin Yi’s discovery.

Chi Tong’s question reminded Lin Yi of a sentence he once read in a post:

“I discovered you because I thought the same thing as you. That’s the best hiding spot around here.”

Lin Yi’s words made Chi Tong shudder.

Chi Tong suddenly felt as if he’d been enlightened as if he’d bore a tacit understanding of things he’d never cared about before.

Lin Yi was still talking, and Chi Tong had no choice but to pull himself out of that mysterious state and stare at Lin Yi with a burning gaze.

Suddenly, Chi Tong had a feeling.

He felt that what this man was about to say next would be extremely important to him.

Lin Yi said with a profound expression,

“A thief in stealth can only deceive the eyes of a human.”

Lin Yi pointed at his ears.

“Whether it’s the sound of your footsteps approaching or the sound of your breathing becoming rapid due to excitement, it all proves of your existence.”

Boom!

Hearing Lin Yi’s words, Chi Tong felt something had exploded in his mind. A brand new path suddenly appeared before his eyes.

“You have to know that this is Glory Of The Gods, not your run-of-the-mill online game.”

“Stealth is not complete invisibility in the true sense. Only when you can deceive the face of someone would the true meaning of stealth, the walker in the shadows, materialize.”

Lin Yi stopped talking because he knew that some things were best left unsaid.

He believed that with the person’s talent before him, he should know what he was trying to say. After all, there was a high chance that these words came from him. But it was already two years after the game’s launch.

After Chi Tong had digested Lin Yi’s words, he looked at him in disbelief.

“Why are you helping me?”

From Chi Tong’s point, this was the first time the two were meeting.

He didn’t even ask how he learned stealth but had already given him such important information.

Chi Tong couldn’t understand. What was the purpose of this?

Was It really out of kindness?

Lin Yi looked at Chi Tong in amusement.

“You might not believe me, but I’m telling you all this because I want to be friends with you.”

But right after Lin Yi said that Chi Tong’s face turned serious:

“I believe you!”

Lin Yi raised an eyebrow. How could he believe that?

But to be honest, Lin Yi was only saying all this because he wanted to show off. Of course, he also wanted to help this elusive ‘legend’ rise as soon as possible.

There was a rumor that Chi Tong had a sickly sister that he needed to take care of in the real world.

He had no special skills and had to spend all his money to buy a gaming helmet to play the game said to make money to raise funds for his sister’s medical costs.

Lin Yi couldn’t tell if this was true or not, but he knew that although Chi Tong was known as the king of the shadows, he had never killed a player in the past three years of the game.

As a thief, this was absolutely unbelievable.

From this, he could tell that at least Chi Tong wasn’t a bad person.

That was enough.

Just then, Lin Yi received a friend request.

Chi Tong?

He suddenly smiled and accepted the friend request.

“I have some equipment that you can use here. Consider it a welcoming gift.”

Seeing that Chi Tong was about to reject him, Lin Yi didn’t give him a chance.

“If you want to make money in the game, the only way is to become stronger. Take it. You can return it to me when you earn a little more.”

After a moment’s hesitation, Chi Tong eventually took the equipment that Lin Yi picked out from his backpack.

Although he didn’t understand why the person in front of him wanted to help him, it was the first time Chi Tong, who was used to being alone, experienced the warmth of humanity from someone other than his sister.

Maybe it was because he rarely interacted with others that Chi Tong looked deeply at Lin Yi, thanked him, and quickly disappeared from his sight.


Lin Yi, on the other hand, didn’t mind and continued, “Don’t be in a hurry to change classes after level ten. Go to the main city of Xuanwu first, then teleport to a place called Dolan City.”

“Find a drunkard named Benox there and try your best to complete the mission he gave you. I think he’ll give you a surprise.”

Lin Yi didn’t care if the drunkard heard him or not, but he looked up at the mountain.

A Level 6 demonic boar wasn’t enough to level up.

Killing monsters three levels higher gave him the most experience.

Just as Lin Yi was about to head to the Level 7 demonic gray wolf zone, a red guy suddenly appeared out of the corner of his eye.

The purple light made Lin Yi Shudder,

epic equipment!

Lin Yi turned around to see a red boar king in front of him.

“I didn’t expect to meet a Boss here..”
